America MG – Chapecoense-SC FREE PICKS

América Mineiro and Chapecoense meet at Estádio Raimundo Sampaio, in a match for the 12 th round of Serie A. In the last 3 years there is only record of 2 direct confrontations between these two teams: one at 08-20-2016, which ended in a victory of the Chapecoense by (1-2), and another more recent on 05-22-2016, which ended in a victory of the Chapecoense by (3-1). The condition home / away deserves particular attention, because despite this being a match between 13 th and 14 th of the league table, it is actually a match between the 4th classified in home matches and the 17 th as a visitor.

América Mineiro:

After 4 wins, 1 draw and 6 losses, the home team is currently in the 13 th position, with 13 points won. In the last match, they lost in an away match against Grêmio, by (1-0), after in the previous match they lost (1-3) at home, against Atlético Mineiro. This is a stronger team in their home stadium, where they have won 12 points, against only 1 out of their away matches. For the championship, América Mineiro won 12 points out of 18 possible points, after 4 wins and 2 losses in the last 6 matches that it disputed in its stadium. They have not been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 11 matches in the competition, they suffered the first goal 6 times and only managed 1 comeback. There is 1 period that stands out in the last 20 home matches for all competitions: they have suffered 7 of their 19 goals between minutes (31′-45 ‘).

The América-Mg team ended up having negative results in the last two days, but played against two rather strong teams. On this next day, the home team will have a theoretically easier game ahead, so it is very important that you get to win the three points, because if you have a negative result again you can see your life get complicated in the competition . On the last day the América-MG team ended up being beaten away from home by the Gremio team, by the score of 1-0. The coach of the local team needs to present a fairly competitive starting eleven, since this is the last match before the start of the World Cup.

Chapecoense:

After 3 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses, the away team is currently in the 14 th position of the league, with 13 points won. In the last match, they have won at home against Cruzeiro by (2-0), after in the previous match they have lost out in a match against Vitória, by (1-0). This is a stronger team in their stadium, where they have won 11 points, against only 2 in their away games. For the league, Chapecoense won 2 points out of 18 possible points, after 2 draws and 4 losses in the last 6 matches as a visitor.

For this competition, they have not won any of the last 6 away matches. The team has conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, so it has not presented great defensive solidity, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. There is 1 period that stands out in the last 20 away matches for all competitions: they have scored 6 of their 17 goals between minutes (31’-45 ‘).

For playing away from home, the Chapecoense must find some difficulties, since it will not have the support of its fans, besides that in this condition it has not obtained good results. So, this must be a very intense game, because both teams have technically similar templates, so that whoever missed the least must conquer the three points. On the last day, the Chapecoense team achieved an excellent result and defeated Cruzeiro by a score of 2-0. The visiting coach must not have important absences for this match.
